Background technology
Recently, researched and developed the optical fiber that is used for optical communication well.As an example of this optical fiber, known a kind of core that comprises that an external diameter is about 10 microns; Be arranged on the coating that core outer periphery and external diameter are about 125 microns; Optical fiber also is equipped with a lasso, and this lasso is arranged on an one connection end, is used for optical fiber is connected with another optical fiber.
Lasso is a cylindrical parts that constitutes an optics unitor, and this optics unitor is used to keep the end with fixed fiber, thereby optical fiber is connected with another optical fiber.After with cementing agent etc. an optical fiber being inserted and being fastened to the external diameter core of lasso, the front end of lasso is polished into a minute surface, thereby can be coupled to each other by two optical fiber of each lasso maintenance when the front end face of two lassos presses each other.
Be polished into plane that is orthogonal to optical axial or the plane that tilts to intersect with optical axial although known front end face with lasso, but notice has been guided into such lasso recently, its front end face is subjected to PC (physics contact) polishing to obtain the convex surface spherical form, makes the front end face can be because the pressure that the front end face of lasso is pressed each other and elastic deformation.
In order to reduce the light loss when optical fiber is coupled to each other, JIS has stipulated multiple high precision specification.For the lasso of PC polishing, stipulated the specification of 6 micron number magnitudes, as the scale error of the radius of the radian of front end face, and the summit of the spherical front end face of lasso and the offset error between the fiber core center.
Such situation is arranged, and wherein the micro-interference instrument apparatus is used to detect the lasso of being produced and whether meets this specification.The micro-interference instrument apparatus has been configured to make the carrying phase information such as the surface configuration of small sample and the object light and the reference ray of index distribution to interfere mutually, multiaspect is observed the interference fringe that obtains like this, and the shape and the variation of measurement and analysis interference fringe, thereby the phase information of acquisition sample.
When detecting the lasso of being produced, need a tilt adjustment device that is used to regulate the relative tilt between micro-interference instrument apparatus and the lasso optical axial with this micro-interference instrument apparatus.
Conventional known this tilt adjustment device is a kind of like this, comprise two seat elements, they can relative to each other tilt as fulcrum with their support unit toward each other, and an adjusting screw(rod), and the front end face of this adjusting screw(rod) forms a convex surface spherical surface.This adjusting screw(rod) rotatably is screwed in one of them seat element and by its maintenance, front end face stretches to another seat element simultaneously., rotate this adjustings surface and the change extension elongation, thereby regulate two relative tilts between the seat element when being positioned at the area supported sliding contact of base opposite side at front end face.
But, in this conventional tilt adjustment device, can there be following point because the front end face of adjusting screw(rod) forms the convex surface spherical surface.That is to say that when the misalignment adjusting screw(rod) axis of the convex surface spherical surface that is positioned at the adjusting screw(rod) front end, the diameter center ring of convex surface spherical surface rotates around adjusting screw(rod) when adjusting screw(rod) rotates.When the area supported formation that is positioned at the seat element opposite side that contacts with this convex surface spherical surface had the groove in V-arrangement cross section, it was limited in the slip of convex surface spherical surface only at (groove an extends) predetermined direction.Therefore, when adjusting screw(rod) rotates, can apply a power and area supported is pressed into a direction that is substantially normal to this predetermined direction.This power can make two seat elements relative to each other be offset, thereby tilt adjustment is had a negative impact.
The convex surface spherical surface is little of usually making the relative position side-play amount between above-mentioned two seat elements seem to keep very little at the offset of adjusting screw(rod) front end.But when the time with the shape of above-mentioned microinterferometer measurement device lasso, even taking place, small offset all can greatly influence measurement when adjustment collar tilts, because must the lasso leading section be remained on precalculated position, object lens front of micro-interference instrument apparatus with high precision.
On the other hand, when detecting the lasso of being produced with this micro-interference instrument apparatus, the lasso that needs a clamping device will detect with the high position precision remains on precalculated position, object lens front of micro-interference instrument apparatus.Because lasso is contained in the tube element that constitutes optical plugs usually, loop clamping is suitable for clamping lasso under the state in being contained in such tube element.
Figure 13 represents a conventional example of this loop clamping.Figure 13 is the cut-open view that is in the conventional clamping device under the maintainance set round attitude.Lasso 420 shown in Figure 13 keeps and the end of a fastening not shown optical fiber, is contained in simultaneously in the tube element of a formation optical plugs 400.Clamping device 500 comprises that one is used for being arranged to the converter 520 that can move with respect to supporting member 510 and one from 510, one of the supporting members of one side bearing lasso 420 and is used to suppress converter 520 so that the mobile latter's press element 530.
It is relative with supporting member 510 that converter 520 is striden lasso 420, mobile between the clamping off-position that can separate at the clip position that contact with lasso 420 opposite sides with this side simultaneously.Press element 530 comprises the screw shaft 531 and the rod element 532 that is used for around its axis C rotary screw axle 531 that mesh with the threaded hole 511 that is formed in the supporting member 510; And be configured under the upper surface state of contact of spherical front end face of screw shaft 531 and converter 520 compacting converter 520 downwards.
In clamping device 500, the converter of being suppressed by press element 530 520 moves to clip position from the clamping off-position, presses the opposite side of lasso 420, thereby can enough supporting members 510 and converter 520 supporting lassos 420.
The problem of the conventional clamping device 500 shown in Figure 13 is as follows.That is to say that though the leading section that is contained in the lasso 420 in the tube element 410 stretches out from the front end of tube element 410, extension elongation is shorter usually.Though supporting member 510 and converter 520 parts extend in the tube element 410 with the chuck edge of fastening lasso 420, the line of action of force (C is consistent with axis) that passes the compacting point P of press element 530 is positioned at the front end outside of tube element 410.Therefore, line of action of force can depart from lasso 420 zones (zone between Figure 13 mid point S and T) by supporting member 510 supportings.When press element 530 was suppressed converter 520 in this state, converter 520 can (direction of clockwise direction rotation converter 520 in Figure 13) reverse, and made to be difficult to stably or to keep lasso 420 with high precision with a predetermined attitude.
When astatically lasso being remained in the loop clamping that is used for the micro-interference instrument apparatus, lasso can be changed its position therebetween in observation, thereby measurement and analysis are had a negative impact.When lasso does not keep with predetermined attitude, can not finish high-acruracy survey and analysis.
